Adjunct Faculty Self-Assessment

UAS relies on adjunct instructors to increase both the breadth and the depth of educational opportunities available to our students. As an adjunct instructor, you play a critical role in strengthening UAS courses and programs. Thank you for the quality instruction that you provide to our students!

As a step toward providing you the support you need, we invite you to complete this annual adjunct faculty self-assessment. Completing this is voluntary, but your responses will help us identify how best to support adjunct instruction. It should only take a few minutes and we believe it will lead to better support for you and your adjunct faculty colleagues.

Please return the completed form by the end of each semester via email to your dean or director. We will make sure that your assessment gets to the appropriate program coordinator or department chair who will review your assessment and respond to you within 2-3 weeks.

Thank you for your continued commitment to our students and to quality education.
